Photo Shop Elements 9 for Mac

I have PSE 8 (and 4 & 6) on my iMac.  I have downloaded the trial version of PSE 9 for Mac to see if there is enough improvement to warrant the purchase.  I am using an external HD exclusively dedicated to photos.  There are over 6000 photos that were tagged and dated using various Windows versions of PSE, and I am adding more daily.  I use both Mac and Windows versions of PSE 8, since my Dell laptop uses Vista.  I have attempted to use the existing catalog from the external HD in the trial version of PSE 9 for Mac, but without success.  I used the "custom" button in Organizer Catalog Manager, browsed to the photo files, (the location shows on the left), but the "open" button remains grayed out.  What should I do to have PSE 9 for Mac recognize the existing catalog?
I will also upgrade the Windows version to PSE 9.  Will I have a similar problem getting it to recognize the existing catalog?
Thanks

I want to share it between the Mac and my Dell laptop, which I take with me
when traveling.  That way I can load photos from the camera and tag them
while my memory is fresh, and then edit and print them from the Mac, which
has a very nice large screen.  I use an external USB HD for file storage so
it plugs easily into both machines.  In the past I kept an older Windows
version of PSE on the Mac using VM Ware since there was no Organizer in the
Mac versions of PSE.  I would use the Windows version of Organizer to
identify the files I wanted and then open them in PSE 8 for Mac to edit.
Hopefully, with Organizer included in PSE 9 for Mac I can save those extra
steps, as well as free up space on my internal HD.
Are you the author of my great "Missing Manuals"?  I have both the Mac and
Windows versions, and both have gotten a lot of use.  If you are, doubly
thanks.

    Is there a book for learning Photo Shop Elements 9 for getting your memory card downloaded and then making and editing movies?  Or is there a class in the Chicago, Hoffman Estates, Barrington, IL area?

    You can get the Classroom in a Book from http://www.adobepress.com (a susidy of Pearson). This will take you through pretty much everything, from start to finish.
    If you are looking to edit movies though, you will need Premiere Elements (the sister program to Photoshop Elements, which is used for editing images).

    Press Cmd+C to copy your selection

    I took pictures with the date/time stamp on my camera set to the wrong time.  When I try to correct the time on the photo under "file info", the time does not stay corrected.  Please help!  Thank you!

    Photoshop Elements 7 can be downloaded thru the page linked below:
    http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop-elements/kb/photoshop-elements-7-8-9-downloads.html
    If that does not work for you then you can download the trial version of the software thru the page linked below and then use your current serial number to activate it.
    Be sure to follow the steps outlined in the Note: Very Important Instructions section on the download pages at this site and have cookies enabled in your browser or else the download will not work properly.

    As far as your tutorials and training videos go, you will likely have to research that yourself since no one here is likely to know what those were nor where they can be acquired.

    Trying to download Photo shop elements free trail and it is asking me for serial #.  Where do you find free trail Serial #

    There is no serial number for a trial version.  You get the serial number when you purchase.  You should be able to select an option to continue with the trial if it is not indicating the trial is over.  If the trial is indicated as over, that can happen prematurely for a variety of reasons.

    Hi I have the old photo shop elements 10 on my computer and want to update and was wondering what the differences between photoshop, lightroom and photoshop elements are?
    Also when I upgrade does it have to be with a monthly membership or can I just purchase the product out right like you use to be able?

    You cannot "update" from what you have to any of the applications you mention. It will have to be a straight purchase or subscription at full price.
    Photoshop is a professional level application that makes no apologies for its very long and steep learning curve.
    Lightroom is all about volume, and very light editing.

  • Adobe PhotoShop Elements 6 for Mac

    I've downloaded, without difficulty, the Adobe PhotoShop Elements 6 for Mac 30 day trial onto my Pismo running OS 10.4.8 with 1GB of RAM. As soon as I try to open a photo the application crashes. I know the G3 processor (500 MHz) will be slow but it shouldn't be impossible for it to cope. Adobe's site says that G4 or higher is required. Perhaps I should look at earlier versions of the application. Any advice/suggestions would be appreciated

    Hi, Tim. As you've noted, your Pismo doesn't meet the minimum System Requirements for PSE6:
    *PowerPC® G4 or G5 or multicore Intel® processor (your Pismo has a G3)*
    - Mac OS X v10.4.8 through 10.5.2
    - 512MB of RAM (1GB recommended)
    *64MB of video RAM (your Pismo has 8MB)*
    - 1GB of available hard-disk space (additional free space required during installation)
    - 1,024x768 monitor resolution with 16-bit video card
    - DVD-ROM drive
    - QuickTime 7 software required for multimedia features
    - Internet connection required for Internet-based services
    (boldface added)
    Yes, if I were you I'd try to buy an earlier version of PSE.

  • Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 for Mac does not show up in Applications. Tutorial for editing from iPhoto shows selecting the Adobe software in Applications. Am I missing a step in registering product?

    Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 for Mac does not show up in Applications. Tutorial for editing from iPhoto shows selecting the Adobe software in Applications. Am I missing a step in registering product?

    I answered my own question: There's a difference between "download' and "install." Hunt for "install" (1.5 hrs in my case) and line up your passwords, Adobe ID, etc, then install. Took 15 min. The right choice shows up in Applications. Now it's on to figuring out why photo selected for edit in iPhoto does not show up on screen in Elements.

  • Photo shop elements 7 vs light room which one to buy???

    Well Ive watched alot of tutorials  and both seem to have some cool feateures.  I am a amature at photo editing.  I cant seem to make up my mind on which program to use.  I have been using photo shop elemts 3 for a few years but am not great with it.  I have taken couses on photoshop cs and found it is alot more program than what i have time to learn.  I want to be able to orginize adjust and share my photos.  I want to be able to take several photos and turn them into one.  Can the two programs work together? 
    I have about 8000 photos I am going to have to reimport, tag and orginize I just as well uprade or change programs before I take the time to do this.  Any input form anyone that has used both would be greatly appriciated.
    Randy

    PSE and LR can work together:  You would import your photos into LR and
    catalog/keyword/non-destructively-adjust them, then you can do right-click
    then Edit in Photoshop Elements to make further destructive adjustments to a
    copy of the LR-adjusted photo.
    PSE7 is less than $100.  LR2 is $300.  PS11 is $600.  I have all three and
    use LR most of the time and tend to use PS to do any further adjustments
    that I find necessary, which isn't that often, so most things are taken care
    of entirely in LR.
    You can download a trial of both PSE7 and LR2 and see how well you like
    either or both.  You cannot share the keywords between the two, so you will
    want to use LR to catalog and organize things if you have it, or perhaps PSE
    to organize things if you don't have LR, although I've never done this so
    can't really compare the two.
    As far as wanting to take multiple photos and create one from them, do you
    mean something like a collage or scrapbook pages, are do you mean taking an
    object like a person from one photo and putting it into a background of
    another, a composite photo that still looks like one photo?  Being a
    consumer-level program, PSE may be able to make simple collage-type things,
    but you need the full professional-level Photoshop to do the layering and
    masking involved in creating a composite photograph from parts of others
    that you have extracted.
